Hello my name is Sharren.It is my first time being in E_tasc and i really like it because we get to learn new and interesting things.This is an experiment we have done last week. We tasted how salty the water in The Murray River and it was really salty.When I tasted the water i felt surprised and i really wanted to help clean up the river. It is a threat to plants and animals because the water is to salty for them to drink or grow in.

I found out that the water from the Murray River is MUCH saltier than the sea water. It was nearly double the salt.
